I have been looking for a deck bag to fit my wants and this one does it flawlessly! I just got to use it today for the first time and was very impressed! i no longer have my pump and paddle float hiding behind my seat and feel a little more at ease having it just in front of me just in case. Build quality so far looks sturdy. I really was not expecting the storage area to be as large as it is while keeping a low profile. All in all this thing is perfect for me and i am very satisfied with the product!
